In The Immigrant Superpower, Tim Kane argues that immigration has long been a source of American strength and that exceptional immigrants have been crucial to American exceptionalism. Deftly combining stories of immigrants who have contributed to the American experience with analysis of the effects of immigration on wages and unemployment, Kane's impassioned view of how immigration has made America great stands in contrast to the broken and dysfunctional debate about immigration.
